It's time once again for everyone's favorite PC Building competition. We're asking you to submit your best performing builds across a number of budget categories. We want to share the joy of PC Building with the entire computer hardware community, which is why we're opening up this years competition to our sister site the PC Gamer forums. In this competition we're taking it back to the old school. That's right our rules and format are same as they ever was. In short, you submit the best performing builds at the lowest possible price in a number of categories. We pick the top five builds, you vote on them. The winners and their builds are featured on the Tom's Hardware homepage.

The competition will run from April 17th till April 27th. This means you have 10 days to submit your builds!

We've extended the submission period until May 4th! May the fourth be with you and may your builds bring order to the galaxy!

At the end of the competition the winners and their builds will be featured on the Tom's Hardware home page. Submit your build and get that clout!

This is the $750 4K Capable Gaming Category
Please submit builds with the best gaming performance for $750 or less. We will favor builds with components that are known to excel at 4K.

How does it work?​

After a week of submissions, the Tom's Hardware staff will pick their top 5 in each category. We will judge primarily on quality of components, price, and theoretical system performance.​
